COCONUT/BANANA CREAM PIE

NO-BAKE COCONUT CREAM PIE WITH STRAWBERRIES AND PINEAPPLE
When I was researching pie recipes for my upcoming cookbook, I asked my social media followers if they had any regional specialties I may not have heard of. I received five requests for a pie with a coconut custard, pineapple topping, toasted macadamia nuts and fresh strawberries. I'd never had the combination before, but it's a match made in summery pie heaven -- and made even better with a hefty dollop of whipped cream atop each slice.

Steps:
- For the crust: In the bowl of a food processor, pulse the wafer cookies, macadamia nuts, granulated sugar and salt together until the mixture forms fine crumbs. Add the melted butter and pulse until the mixture is evenly combined.
- Press the crust into a 9-inch pie plate and transfer to the freezer until firm (at least 1 hour and up to overnight).
- For the filling: In a medium pot, heat the coconut milk and whole milk together over medium heat. In a small bowl, whisk the granulated sugar, cornstarch, salt, egg and egg yolk to combine. When the milk mixture comes to a simmer, pour about 1/4 of it into the sugar/egg mixture, whisking constantly.
- Return this mixture to the pot and continue to cook over medium-low heat until the mixture thickens and large bubbles pop up from the center of the pot, 3 to 5 minutes.
- Remove the pot from the heat and stir in the butter, vanilla and shredded coconut. Pour the mixture into the frozen pie crust, cover directly with plastic wrap and refrigerate to cool completely.
- For the toppings: In a medium pot, stir together the crushed pineapple, light brown sugar, cornstarch and salt to combine. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the mixture thickens, 3 to 4 minutes. Cool completely, then pour on top of the chilled pie. Sprinkle the macadamia nuts in an even layer on top of the pie. (The pie can be made up to this point 24 hours ahead of time.)
- When ready to serve, toss the strawberries and honey together in a medium bowl. Arrange in an even layer on top of the pie. Serve slices with whipped cream.

COCONUT RUM PIE WITH PINEAPPLE
This pie is so great for the summertime, it tastes like a frozen pina colada! I have tried it with banana as well, but I prefer the pineapple.The fresh pineapple is great, but it works just fine with canned. This is adapted from Bon Appetit magazine, the July 1997 edition. Plan ahead, as prep time does not include freezing time. Well worth the effort for that special summer party. Hope you enjoy!

BANANA COCONUT CREAM PIE
Steps:
- Make the shell:
- In a food processor or bowl combine well the flour, the sugar, the baking powder, and the salt, add the butter, and blend the mixture until it resembles fine meal. Stir in all but 1 tablespoon of the coconut, reserving the remaining 1 tablespoon for garnish, and the egg, stirring until the mixture forms a dough. Knead the dough lightly on a floured surface several times to blend it well and press it onto the bottom and up the side of an 11-inch fluted tart pan with a removable bottom. Chill the shell for 30 minutes, line it with foil, and fill the foil with the rice. Bake the shell in the lower third of a preheated 375°F. oven for 10 minutes, remove the rice and foil carefully, and bake the shell for 5 to 10 minutes more, or until it is golden. Let the shell cool completely in the pan or a rack.
- Make the filling:
- In a heavy saucepan whisk together the sugar, the cornstarch, and the eggs, add the milk in a slow stream, whisking, and bring the mixture to a boil over moderate heat, whisking constantly. Simmer the pastry cream, whisking, for 2 minutes, transfer it to a bowl, and stir in the coconut extract, the vanilla, and the Malibu rum. Chill the pastry cream, its surface covered with plastic wrap, for 4 hours, or until it is cold. The pastry cream may be made 1 day in advance and kept covered and chilled.
- Slice thin on the diagonal enough of the bananas (about 2 1/2) to cover the bottom of the shell in one layer, arrange the slices in the shell, and cover them with the pastry cream, spreading it evenly. Slice thin on the diagonal the remaining bananas and arrange the slices decoratively over the pastry cream in solid layers, making each layer gradually smaller. In a small saucepan melt the apple jelly over moderate heat, while it is still warm brush it over the banana slices, coating them completely, and chill the tart for 1 hour. The tart may be prepared up to this point 1 day in advance and kept covered loosely and chilled.
- Just before serving, in a chilled bowl beat the cream until it holds stiff peaks, transfer it to a pastry bag fitted with a medium star tip, and pipe it decoratively around the edge of the tart. Sprinkle the cream with the reserved 1 tablespoon coconut and remove the side of the pan.
Tips:
- For the perfect crust, use a combination of graham cracker crumbs and coconut flakes. This will give the crust a delicious and unique flavor.
- Be sure to chill the pie crust before filling it. This will help to prevent the crust from becoming soggy.
- When making the filling, use ripe bananas. This will give the pie a sweeter and more flavorful taste.
- Don't overbeat the whipped cream. Overbeaten whipped cream will become grainy and lose its light and fluffy texture.
- For a more decadent pie, use a combination of heavy cream and milk when making the whipped cream.
- If you don't have time to make the whipped cream, you can use store-bought whipped cream instead.
- Garnish the pie slices. Chocolate shavings, fresh whipped cream, fruit or even mint leaves can be used to garnish the pie.
- Serve the pie immediately or chill it for later. Coconut banana cream pie can be served chilled or frozen.
Conclusion:
Coconut banana cream pie is a delicious and easy-to-make dessert that's perfect for any occasion. With its creamy filling, coconut and banana flavor, and delicious graham cracker crust, this pie is sure to be a hit. So next time you're looking for a special dessert, give this coconut banana cream pie a try. You won't be disappointed!
